Carlo Ancelotti backs Luis Enrique in resting Lionel Messi and Neymar
Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has defended Barcelona counterpart Luis Enrique in his decision to rest Lionel Messi and Neymar on Sunday 4th Januaty 2015..........




Both players were afforded an extra two days' break at Christmas and subsequently returned to the club later than the rest of the squad.

Messi and Neymar were left on the bench at the start of Barca's La Liga trip to Real Sociedad at the weekend, but were called into action in the second half as the visitors trailed 1-0.

Barca were unable to find an equaliser, however, which led to Luis Enrique being questioned about his decision to rest the pair.

But Ancelotti has backed the decision of his rival.

"I do not know the dressing room of Barcelona, I cannot comment," he said.

"Everyone faces decisions regarding the dressing room. Luis Enrique is best placed to make those decisions, it looked like a fair one.

"I'm not happy [about what is happening at Barca], because I have things to fix.

"I look at my own team, not what happens in Barcelona. Let's just say that teams have problems during the season."

Real next face city rivals Atletico Madrid in the last 16 of the Copa del Rey, with the first leg to come at the Vicente Calderon on Wednesday, and Ancelotti is aware of what to expect.

"We know them very well. We have played against them many times and often this season," he said.

"They are a tough team because they make things difficult for you and they are well organised.

"We have always tried our best to win. They are one of the best teams in Europe."

DISTRACTION

DISTRACTION A distraction is anything within or round you thatprevent your concentration or diverts your attention from a particular thing or cause, within a specific fragment of time. The word “ANYTHING” as used above simply means a distraction can be in form of anything such as thoughts, actions, clothes, phones or phone calls, ideas and so on. The word “WITHIN YOU” or “AROUND YOU” simply means that a distraction can come from the things within you, or the things around you. The word “CONCENTRATION” or “ATTENTION” are the direct opposites of the word “DISTRACRION”    and distraction is antagonistic to them. The sentence “SPECIFIED FRAGMENT OF TIME” as used in the definition simply means that distraction is not a permanent phenomenon. It only comes up within a specific time, while its permanence or longevity depends on your ability or inability to conquer it. When you are set to pray at 5:00am and then there is a phone call to you at 5:05am (i.e. just b...
